Writing Wednesday: PayPerPost
March 5th, 2008 | 
Author: Somewhere in the blogging world, I came across a list of must-use sites for bloggers wishing to make money with their blogs. Then a few days later I came across someone else’s post about one of the sites she was part of and it was one I had read about on the other list. (Sorry, can’t remember where I read about the sites.) What site is it? PayPerPost
PayPerPost offers bloggers opportunities to “write about web sites, products, services, and companies and earn cash for providing your opinion and valuable feedback to advertisers.”
Earn cash? Yes! As a newbie, I’m earning $20 for writing this short little piece about PayPerPost. Some of the opportunities pay less ($5-10) and others pay more ($30-60). The higher paying posts require what is called tack and rank which, according to my understanding, you gain over time as you use the site more and more. But either way, I see PayPerPost as a great way to write potential reviews about things you may already be familiar with.
PayPerPost also offers a “university” where users can watch training videos and learn more about how to maximize their usage of PayPerPost. There’s also a valuable community forum for users especially newbies trying to learn more about PayPerPost.
So, if you’re like me and looking to earn a few dollars for birthdays and Christmas, I think PayPerPost just might be the opportunity you’re looking for especially if you want to exercise those writing skills!

Works For Me Wednesday: Food Question
Today is Works For Me Wednesday: Backwards Edition over at Rocks in My Dryer. Typically, bloggers offer advice on things that work for them. However, in Backwards Edition, bloggers ask questions to get readers’ help. Here’s my question:
How long does food keep in the refrigerator? I’m thinking of things like store-bought salad dressing, homemade potato salad, lunchmeat, sour cream once it is open, vegetables, leftover cooked vegetables, etc. Also, what is the recommended length of time food keeps in the freezer?
I know there are rules out there for how long things should be kept or how soon they should be eaten after making. I know that vacuum-sealed food keeps longer in the freezer, but what about make-ahead dishes, homemade pizza dough etc? Can pasta be frozen?
